For my last year at school i have to work on a quite big degree work, so i wanted do something that i'm interested in: freeskiing.
So i wanted to ask you guys if someone's got an idea what i could do about freeskiing, just some tipps would really help. ( and please not things like a presentation about the live of tom wallisch, it should be something with my own researchs in it.
thx guys ;)

Maybe about the development of skis and they're profiles, camber, early rise etc... If you go on Line's YT, theres loads of info on all of these things and im sure therres more online.

what do you mean by "degree work". Assuming you are in high school?

people here will give you shit for trying to do a project on skiing. I think this is crazy as there are many good research projects you can do on skiing, you just have to be very specific what you are researching.

give us more details about the assignment...

You could do some sort of sociological experiment like find out what characteristics or demographics make up park skiers vs racers vs bc skiers. You could evaluate what skier experiences mean to these people depending on what kind of skiing they participate in. You could also do something related to business if that's what you're doing like what kind of skis are selling vs not etc. there are alot of things you could come up with. I evaluated personal gratification through freestyle progression for my thesis in college.

be more specific. If it's chemistry or physics, get someone with a TEM to look at bases and see if you can make a super good base.
